Sammy Davis Jr was blessed with massive self confidence, grace and charm. Oh, and a stunning singing and dancing talent. This is a fittingly reverent doco about a superstar. It's revealing that Michael Jackson, who didn't, as a rule, appear on TV, agreed to perform at Davis's 60th anniversary tribute show. Jackson sings how Davis opened the door to other people, meaning people like him. Davis was amazing for refusing to take the easy way out. He was threatened by mobsters for dating white women, but he even married one. He worked extremely hard, but was generous and kind to others. He had a lovely singing voice, and a flair for comedy. The tap dancing routine at the end sums up his skill - incredible. His death was a great loss to show business. And this doco is a great tribute.
